OHIO RESOURCES & TOOLS

While Ohio’s nonprofit sector is well-linked throughout the state, it can still be difficult for nonprofits to obtain information about relevant grant opportunities. So, if you’ve been wondering how to win grant funding in Ohio, you’re in the right place! Whether you’re in Cleveland, Youngstown, Columbus, Hamilton, Springfield, or another Ohio city—the following resources will help you find the nonprofit grant funding you need.

One of the state’s most influential organizations is Ohio Association of Nonprofit Organizations (OANO) whose mission is to “provide leadership, education, and advocacy to enhance the ability of Ohio’s nonprofit organizations to serve their communities.” If you’re interested in government nonprofit grants, start by Finding Your Representative and visiting their website for information about federal grants relevant to Ohio nonprofits. Another fantastic Ohio resource is the Attorney General’s Guide to Ohio Nonprofits which offers helpful information for nonprofits in need of grant funding in Ohio.

Below you’ll find a list of some additional helpful Ohio nonprofit resources. If you know of a resource we may have missed, please reach out and let us know!
